About
You may like this if you enjoy compact shark-survival thrillers like 47 Meters Down, with steady tension and a simple premise; Not for you if unrealistic animal behavior ruins the fun.
Pros: tense survival setup; beautiful beach setting; strong lead performance | Cons: thin story; exaggerated shark behavior; divisive final stretch
